Thanks, this has worked. Now, for a different issue -- it appears the build
process downloads a pile of things, mostly related to tycho, but maybe something
else. How do I go about pre-fetching all of that, and making the build process
use the pre-fetched copies, so that our production build can use snapshot
of everything as of today (for example) and now try to fetch anything new
every time?

It seems like I might be able to first do a regular build, then copy ~/.m2 and
then use use the -gs option to point maven to a point maven to a settings
file that will specify that repository copy, as well as force offline mode,
but I would appreciate if somebody comment on such a plan (or maybe existing
solutions), before I start trying this for real.

Thanks,
